After learning his wife (Ulrike Kriener) is sleeping with a virtually penniless artist (Uwe Ochsenknecht), successful corporate ad exec Julius (Heiner Lauterbach) cooks up a twisted plot for revenge by moving in with the competition and becoming his pal. The plot thickens when Julius influences the artist to become more and more like himself -- all in an effort to put the kibosh on his wife's affair. Doris Dörrie writes and directs.
